Hacking Replicate sx pro dongle

[Agim iljazi]

Just out of curiosity has anyone looked into the sx pro dongle to see whats on there and if the contents can be copied onto a usb stick. Then use a cable that converts the Nintendo switch connector to usb?

That's not how any of this works.

Also, it's already USB. Just use TegraRCM or whatever it's called with your Android phone. Done.

If anything then this.

As far as the manual of the device makes me believe, the dongle itself does not contain the license and so does not validate your access to the full SX OS experience. I guess it comes with a separate license code for one device and that's it. I didn't receive mine yet, so I could be wrong.

usb stick

It's not like that. The dongle is some kind of host device (like a "full" computer/rasp/whatever).

And if your intentions is to create a device that do the same job like TX, you have here:

On the page 12 linked you can see the small dongle that Ninoh--FOX did...

And at least 3 people who have use the A5-V11 (with battery) hardware, and Fusee-Lede. Seriously, the battery version of the A5V11 is about the size of a candy bar. It fits neatly just about anywhere, and doubles as a convenient additional battery for road trips. They are also super cheap.

As for what is inside the TX dongle:

There were some posted renderings. It contains two large electrolytic capacitors, a charging circuit, a USB high speed switch, and a low-power micro controller.

There are a number of projects already being created that are either internal modchips that do the same thing, or are tiny microcontroller based injectors. (Like Ninoh-FOX's build.)
